(a) compute the NPV of the project based on the expected cash flows.

Demand for this product is uncertain, and the uncertainty will be resolved at the end of the first year. Management estimates a 60% probability that demand will be high, and the firm will sell 1,500 units per year. If demand is low, 500 units per year will be sold. In either case, the price will be $26. At any time after the first year, the firm can sell the technology for $120,000.

(b) recompute the NPV of the project based on this additional information.
